Mike is a great personal trainer and fitness coach!

Mike is knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I have enjoyed my workouts and Mike has a wealth of information and experience to draw from. I highly recommend Mike Sotos at Rogue Valley Strength & Conditioning! I am also taking his martial arts class with my son and we really enjoy it.

Thanks, Mike!

I’ve been training with Mike for almost six years. His work with me is and has been a huge part of my physical well-being. He’s great to work with, knowledgable, and expert at tailoring my program to my needs. He’s been a major factor in my successful rehab of a badly-torn hamstring and a shoulder impingement—as well as staving off the deterioration of age. I'be had other trainers over the past 40 years and he is by far the best. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Rogue Valley Fitness Training

Mike is a pleasure to work with and takes great pride in his work. He is able to draw on many years of experience and understanding of a wide range of training options to create the optimum strength and conditioning program that works best for the individual in a supportive environment. When it comes to professionalism, competence and integrity, I could not recommend Mike highly enough.

Varied and fun workouts

Mike designs workouts that are not boring. He varies the workouts and encourages adding weights as I grow stronger. He watches my form so that I don't cause any injuries. I am much stronger than when I began working with him.

Customized workouts

I am recovering from a broken ankle and a sprained knee. Mike has customized my workout to meet my specific needs. He has adjusted my workout to support the healing and to help me gain as much strength as I can as these injuries heal. The workout is varied and fun.

Highest recommendations for Mike Sotos

Mike has worked with me regularly for about 5 years. I've had other trainers in the past, but none like him. He focuses specifically on my needs, age, strengths, needs, and injuries. He has helped me rehab from shoulder impingement, creaky joints, a torn hamstring. But best--he is the major force in my ongoing strength, balance, well-being, and functional fitness. I know I've staved off some of the deterioration of aging because of his expertise at designing workouts just for me. He is the best!

Workouts modified to fit my situation

Mike has been helping me to get and stay strong while I battle health problems. He tailors my workouts and monitors my O2. With a recent injury due to a medical event, he has further modified my workout to allow the injury to heal. I would probably be bed ridden if it Mike wasn't helping me to be strong.

Very well trained and professional

Mike Sotos has been a personal trainer for me for quite some time. He has helped me build strength in spite of having some serious health issues. He is very personable and has a deep understanding of fitness and strength training. We also work on agility and that is very helpful to me.

Training Session One Hour

I am 56 and have been training with Mike for almost 4 years now. Once I committed to workout - the results have been truly life changing for me. I have increased stamina, mobility and actually feel proud of my physical appearance. Mike is a pleasure to work with and I really look forward to my sessions.

Training Sessions with Mike

I am 68 years old and have been training with Mike for over a year. He is fun, conscientious and very good. Mike has been instrumental in helping me move out of pain, limited movement and little strength into enjoying life in my body again. I always look forward to our sessions.

Mixes it up!

Mike has worked with me and my husband for a year. We have learned good workout practices, gained better muscle tone and increased our stamina. He "mixes up" the workouts to keep them interesting! Mike rocks!

Great Trainer!

My husband and I bought a whole year's worth of training, and Mike is doing a great job of motivating us and keeping it interesting! We've both lost weight, and more importantly, greatly improved our overall health and strength. And Mike's a hoot, bot boot!

Rogue Valley Fitness Training

I have been working out with RVFT for almost three years now and am delighted with the training sessions and with the advice and guidance that I receive on diet and general health. RVFT is not the same as some of the big name clubs I have used when working in London or New York RVFT is better :-) I find working out can be boring yet playing sports is fun, for me RVFT brings the fun of sports to gym workouts. Magic !

Awesome first work out with Mike

I injured my knee and wanted a trainer who was not only a good trainer, but who had experienced past knee injuries and knew how to help me. And he did. I was sore after my first work out and yet my knee is totally fine. I'm looking forward to my next session with Mike.

Mike is great.

I have never worked with a personal trainer before and was pleasantly surprised at how professional Mike was with the 6 week training schedule as well as how well he communicated about each item in the work out routine, he really knows his stuff and obviously enjoys always learning more to be up to date. I'll be back to him in 6 weeks for sure.

Love Hidden Springs!

I typically hate gyms( and avoid them at all costs but Hidden Springs has a totally different, spa-like feel to it. My orientation with Mike was great, not a fitness nazi, but rather a knowledgable guy with a professional, easy-to-talk-to attitude. Its really nice to feel comfortable instead of intimidated!

Running Coach Extraordinaire!

Mike makes me think I can return safely to not just a running program but a running lifestyle, and I know that his approach is backed up not just with his extensive education, but also his wealth of experience! I'm thrilled to have his help and encouragement.

Fitness Training

Professional and Knowledgeable! Thanks for taking it easy on me, it has been awhile since I have worked these muscles. Would definitely recommend Mike's services to those in need of some guidance and motivation.

Review of Training

This was an outstanding experience for me! I had a consultation and a training with M. Sotos and I was highly impressed with his attention to detail and professionalism. The genbook also made it very easy to schedule my appointment.
